Man Gave Names To All The Animals - Bob Dylan

Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, in the beginning 
Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, long time ago. 

He saw an animal that liked to growl 
Big furry paws and he liked to howl 
Great big furry back and furry hair 
"Ah, think I´ll call it a bear". 

Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, in the beginning 
Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, long time ago. 

He saw an animal up on a hill 
Chewing up so much grass until she was filled 
He saw milk coming out but he didn´t know how 
"Ah, think I´ll call it a cow". 

Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, in the beginning 
Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, long time ago. 

He saw an animal that liked to snort 
Horns on his head and they weren´t too short 
It looked like there 
Wasn´t nothing that he couldn´t pull 
"Ah, I´ll think I´ll call it a bull". 

Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, in the beginning 
Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, long time ago. 

He saw an animal leaving a muddy trail 
Real dirty face and a curly tail 
He wasn´t too small and he wasn´t too big 
"Ah, think I´ll call it a pig". 

Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, in the beginning 
Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, long time ago. 

Next animal that he did meet 
Had wool on his back and hooves on his feet 
Eating grass on a mountainside so steep 
"Ah, think I´ll call it a sheep". 

Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, in the beginning 
Man gave names to all the animals 
In the beginning, long time ago. 

He saw an animal as smooth as glass 
Slithering his way through the grass 
Saw him dissappear by a tree near a lake...
